Chapter 527: Brain Versus Brawn (Part 1)
“You!” Shi Qian gritted his teeth. “We’ll compete fairly and rely on our own abilities!”
Liu Li approved of this very much. “Very well. We’ll rely on our abilities!”
Shi Qian took a few steps toward the beautiful woman. From a closer distance, he could tell that her skin was perfectly soft and fair. It was as though she didn’t have the slightest flaw.
She truly seemed like an art piece that was intentionally crafted in Heaven. “Beautiful lady, please don’t listen to Liu Li’s nonsense about me being a weak scholar. It would be more accurate to say that I’m talented, refined and elegant. Besides, education is the most important in our modern society. No one likes a man who is always involved in violence. There’s nothing to be proud about being good at fighting. That Liu Li is but a gangster. So what if he can beat up seven to eight men? Compared to him, I’m much better at earning money. Money is the most reliable…”
“Shi Qian, are you a fucking professional in tearing down people’s stage?” Liu Li rushed to interrupt him. “I’m also an educated man. Otherwise, would I have the ability to remain by CEO Bai’s side?”
“You were the one who tore down my stage first. Why can’t I say a few truthful words?” Shi Qian was very dissatisfied.
It hadn’t been easy for him all this while to find a beautiful woman he liked! There was no way he was giving her up!
“Hmph, with the way you’re handling this, there’s no way we can still be brothers!”
Shi Qian suddenly thought of something.
His eyes lit up as he spoke to the stunning beauty. “Beautiful lady, you may not know this, but Liu Li has always prioritised his friendships over love. A while ago, CEO Bai wanted to punish him for Fang Xinxin when he told CEO Bai that, ‘women are replaceable like clothes, but brothers are irreplaceable like limbs’. With the word ‘women are replaceable like clothes’ alone, how could he possibly be worth relying upon?”
He patted his own chest and recommended himself unabashedly. “Choose me. I’m different. I’ll definitely prioritise love over my friendships. If you marry me, I guarantee I’ll treat you like an empress.”
“Fuck!” Liu Li was enraged. “That’s enough, Shi Qian. Since you brought up my old injuries, don’t blame me for being ruthless.” He also began targeting Shi Qian. “Beautiful, don’t listen to him. I guarantee that I’ll dote on my wife much more than him. Shi Qian isn’t someone you can marry. As a doctor, he sees countless naked women everyday. Although it’s part of his work, he told me that he has seen so many of them that he has grown disinterested in women. If you go out with him, you may end up sleeping alone everyday!”
“You don’t know that. I might be more capable than you.” Shi Qian’s expression turned stony.
Liu Li did not respond to him. He was focused on protecting his self-image in front of the gorgeous woman. “I’m definitely more capable than him. Beautiful, please don’t listen to him. That day, when I told CEO Bai that ‘women are replaceable like clothes’, I was targeting Fang Xinxin, that super ugly woman. I’m sure you know that Fang Xinxin is our CEO Bai’s fiancée. Her appearance is extremely frightening. Her skin is covered with acne. Just one glance at her is sufficient to force you to vomit out last night’s dinner.”
When Fang Xinxin heard this, she turned back slightly and glared at him with some anger.
Her sparkling, bright eyes immediately left Liu Li awe-struck.
In the process, he completely did not notice that she was angry. Instead, he assumed that her impression of him was improving. “Of course, you’re different. There’s no way a goddess like you is replaceable. For your sake, I would be willing to even take my own life. Of course, the condition is that you have to first give me an opportunity, beautiful…”
Butler Zhao overheard this and immediately rushed over. “Liu Li, what nonsense are you spouting!”
He then glared at Shi Qian sternly. “And you, Doctor Shi. The two of you didn’t even figure out her identity before you began confessing. She is our Young Master’s woman! Do you not want your lives anymore?”
